Now, its just a playtoy for a bored housewoman who enjoys using the site to further her political agenda while she ridicules those she disagrees with.
Enjoy all!!!


Oh Keith that is such an "adonis" comment!



Lets not pretend....This is Catwoman's site. No one else. She is free to uses it and abuse it any way she likes. If the site were ran by a man, my decription would be that of a man...
My only adjective was bored. Hardly sexist.

If these things were not true, I would not say them. Roswitha is my friend and she is the last person here who should be annoyed by frequent "suggestions" from our friendly admin...


Should I send my pm's to Roswitha through you from now on? Are you her knight? I believe Roswitha can make her own decisions and speak up for herself when she has a problem. We don't need some overzealous old men to speak for her.

See, if only you had asked me how to solve this problem from the very beginning, I would have told you and saved you some sleepless nights.

I think there is only one person here that is pretending. But you already know my thoughts on that.

That and if I had the same opportunity to share my points of view without immediate censorship. It appears my causes are against TC sacred cows. The gay Attaturk, evil islam threads go on for pages and pages. I provide an accurate link on the killings in Palestine to force out British rule and I get warned after 1 posting. So as much as you complain about free press in Turkey, there appears little on American made TC website too.

KeithL, I'm sure you can imagine how hard it is to be an admin. Are you implying Roswitha was bullied by admin although she didn't break any rules?

In any normal forum users' suggestions must result in an action taken by an admin/moderator. If there were complaints about her posts, what do you think an admin should do? I can imagine it is hard for some members to wait till all the cartoons download although, personally, I prefer posted cartoons to links.

You mustn't blame the admin for Roswitha's decision. Do you know how many users get PMs from the admin? You don't as it is not made public. Roswitha was not the only one. Besides, Catwoman explained it so many times, it is about time you let it go.

I don't think the fact that some users felt uncomfortable with her posts should make her go away. Some of her posts started great discussions and some cartoons were absolutely brilliant.

And that sexist comment was really low...

Perhaps she wishes to remain silent and is her perogative.

What is it that I'm abusing? Please, enlighten me, I'll be glad to change my horrible ways. I'm not deleting people, I'm not locking threads, I'm only expressing my opinions when there's a discussion. What's so unacceptable and abusive (bullying or lier) by asking Roswitha to post less pictures of smaller size (which has been people's frustration for a long time)?

Yeah right. Why are you saying things that are false and just looking for ways to insult me? Yes, very sexist. Your "guess" that I'm a bored housewoman is a typical sick, sexist offense line. And the primary reason why it's sexist is that you're using this to insult me and not because there's any truth in this. I'm neither bored nor a housewoman. Exactly the opposite.
